GTVHackers has released an Android 3.1 beta built specifically for the Logitech Revue Google TV device. The hitch? It’s not quite ready for public consumption, it could destroy your user experience, and you could end up with a GTV that can’t be restored to its original OS or that is completely bricked.
You can download the update here and instructions are here.

Dish Network has two main bits of info for us this afternoon: one, that it’ll be selling the Logitech Revue, and two, that if you’re a subscriber you’re potentially looking at a nice little discount. Nothing wrong with that. → Read More
Logitech has won the afternoon~! It’s showing off the Revue, and it seems to replicate many of the features of the device I’m currently using: a computer. (I suppose the blame there lies with Google TV, not Logitech.) In any event, there’s a number of accessories that will be available alongside the Revue that may interest you. They’re all available to pre-order right now. → Read More
Google TV is going to be big. Well, at least that’s what us Internet know-it-alls think. The average consumer will actually dictate its reach and household penetration, but apparently Logitech is siding with us on this one.
